Fast Poker
Fast Poker
Fast Poker is a fast-action game of three-card poker played with a standard 52-card deck. The player is pitted against an invisible dealer in the objective to get a three-card poker hand that outranks the dealer’s. Fast Poker also offers an additional side bet for that extra chance to win big!
Ante Up!
The player places an ante bet in the ANTE area on the table. The maximum ante bet is 500. The player also has the option of placing a pair+ side bet up to 500 in the PAIR+ betting area. Chip denominations used in Fast Poker are 1,1, 5, 25, 100 and 500.
The Initial Deal
After betting, the player clicks DEAL. The dealer and the player each receive three cards. The dealer’s cards are dealt face down and the player’s cards face up.
The Pair+ Side Bet
If the player’s three-card hand has at least a pair, the player wins on his pair+ side bet according to the pair+ paytable conveniently displayed on the game screen. The player wins 1:1 for any pair up to 40:1 for a straight flush!
Raise or Fold?
Based on the value of his hand, the player decides whether to FOLD or RAISE. The value of the player’s hand is indicated to him, making Fast Poker an easy, enjoyable game, even for poker newbies. If the player folds, he forfeits his ante bet and the game round ends. If he raises, an additional play bet, equal to his ante bet, is automatically placed in the area labelled RAISE. As soon as the player clicks the RAISE button or the RAISE area on the table, the play bet is posted and the dealer reveals his cards.
The dealer must have a queen or higher to qualify. If the dealer does not qualify, the player wins 1:1 on his ante bet, but his play bet is returned in a “push”. If the dealer qualifies and the player’s hand has a higher value than the dealer’s, the player wins 1:1 on his ante bet plus 1:1 on his play bet. If the dealer and player both hold hands of equal value (i.e. a tie), the player’s ante and play bets are returned in a “push”. If the dealer’s hand is of higher value, the player loses both his ante and play bets.
The Ante Bet Bonus
If the player has a hand with a straight or higher, he wins a special ante bet bonus – even if his hand does not beat the dealer’s. The player wins an ante bonus of 1:1 on his ante for a straight; 4:1 on his ante for three of a kind; or 5:1 on his ante for a straight flush. This is indicated in the ante bet paytable clearly displayed on the game screen.
As expected, Fast Poker proceeds at a brisk pace! However, those who wish to increase the speed of the deal even further can tick the box to play in “Turbo Mode”.
